Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

Burp～

When Noah opened his eyes, he was overwhelmed by a feeling of bloated fullness, which made him involuntarily open his mouth and burp. Even so, the feeling of being overly full didn't lessen much.

"Hmm?!"

Apart from his early childhood days, Noah hadn't experienced the feeling of being overly full in a long time.

On one hand, as a Dragon Species, his digestive ability had gradually strengthened with age and power. On the other hand, as his power grew stronger, Noah no longer needed to eat to sustain bodily functions.

But while he didn't need to eat, it didn't mean he couldn't eat. When faced with delicious food, Noah didn't mind tasting it. If he encountered some treasure extremely beneficial for his growth, he would also devour it.

Yet even if he swallowed an Eternal Level gemstone, it was impossible for the present Noah to feel full, let alone overeat. How many gemstones would that take?

Normally, after waking from a long Deep Sleep Period, the first thing Dragons need to do is hunt to replenish the terrifying consumption from their transformation during sleep.

Noah had once felt a hunger so intense it could destroy a Dragon's rationality. He went so far as to gnaw on a Magic Statue to make up for the consumption, triggering a warning in Mage City, until his foster mother came and provided a large amount of material to alleviate his hunger and restore his calm.

Since that time, Noah hadn't experienced hunger again. During the last completion of his youth phase transformation, he woke feeling refreshed, in peak condition, with his eyes wide open, not needing any material supplementation.

But Noah never expected that this time upon awakening, it would be even more absurd; he was actually overly full. What on earth had he experienced during his sleep?

In the dream, he did have a beautiful encounter with an Elf, but the outcome was quite pleasant.

Although it was only one-sided pleasure for him, what happened in the dream should not have an effect on his real body's feedback. It wasn't the fruit from the Golden Tree.

"Ugh～"

Countless thoughts and assumptions pass in an instant. When the awakened Ancestor Dragon raised its head to look around, it was instantly stunned. Before its eyes was a desolate wasteland, with shocking ravines and cracks, and craters as if fallen stars had struck, filling its vision.

A host of Fairies, apparently stronger than he remembered, were flying around, repairing the sky and earth, injecting vitality back into the desolate dead mountains.

"Noah, Your Highness!"

Two Fairies with Elemental Light Crowns flew over and landed in front of him. Noah's attention was instantly drawn by these two Fairies' states, feeling the element attracted by them in the atmosphere, showing an expression of admiration.

"Finally, legends! Well done! Now both of you can truly be called Fairy Queens!"

Before him were Sifreya and Lu Tixiya, who had been with him earliest. These Fairies had shed the giant-like stature comparable to Dragon Fairies and Giants, reverting back to the small stature Fairies should have, merely about three meters tall.

A dreamlike Elemental Halo surrounded these two Fairies, like a crown, symbolizing the authority they held in the elemental domain. The colors of their light crowns were as splendid as a rainbow, but even more vibrant and mysterious than a rainbow.

At first glance, they seemed to have completed their evolution and settled into being Great Fairies, lacking the many Dragon traits as abundant as in Dragon Fairies.

But upon closer observation, you could discover the differences on these two Fairies: where they stood was the center of elemental convergence, with endless elements converging toward them.

Most notably, these two Fairies contained an overwhelming, ocean-like terrifying blood aura within them, which, if unleashed, would not be weaker than any legendary close combat professionals.

Opening his eyes to find two legendary Favored beside him, Noah was in high spirits. He would be even happier if his stomach wasn't so full.

"I have failed, please punish me, Your Highness!"

When faced with Noah's words full of praise and commendation, Lu Tixiya knelt down on the ground in self-reproach, while Sifreya did the same as she had called back.

"Me too, please lower punishment, Your Highness."

Seeing the two legendary Fairies pleading for punishment, Noah again looked at the already devastated Dragon Palace, raised his Dragon Claw and stroked his chin.

"Although I don't know exactly what happened during my Deep Sleep Period, judging from the traces now, it seems beyond the scope you two youngsters can handle. So, it's fortunate you're still alive and standing before me. You don't need to plead for punishment. I want to know what exactly happened."

The two Fairy Queens exchanged a glance and lowered their heads again, asking their Sect Master for punishment.

"After you fell asleep, we felt your life aura and began evolving, sleeping alongside you. We only awakened half a month before you. During this time, we also don't know what happened."

Lu Tixiya was full of self-reproach. She hadn't expected that, upon entering forced sleep, someone would dare to attack the Holy Dragon Emperor. If she'd known, she would have used all her strength not to enter sleep, vowing to protect.

Upon awakening, she too was alarmed by the Shattered Dragon Palace. She wanted to find out what happened during this time, but unfortunately, no Fairy could tell her.
